[tied] Re: Medieval Dragons, dog/snake, Greek Dragons

There were 4 tonne Monitors (Genus Megalanus) related to the Komodo
Dragon, that coexisted with Australian Aboriginal people here at the
time of their arrival here (part of the extinct Megafauna). It was
amn ambush predator and was suspected as living near waterholes.

An Australasian Urheimat for Dragons ;-)
